The Canadian Birds of Prey Silver Bullion Coins are a Royal Canadian Mint struck series containing reverse imagery dedicated to the birds of prey of Canada. This series features a total of four unique silver bullion coins with this one being the third in the series. Coins in the series are each minted to the exacting standards collectors and investors have come to expect from the Royal Canadian Mint for their bullion products including a composition of .9999 fine silver.

Coin Design

Famed Canadian Artist Emily S. Damstra designed the reverse image which features a Red-Tailed Hawk diving towards its prey. Surrounding the reverse design are the inscriptions of CANADA, 9999, FINE SILVER, 1 OZ, ARGENT PUR and the initials ED for the designer.

The obverse design shows the 2003 effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. It was originally designed by Susan Blunt. Obverse inscriptions include ELIZABETH II, 2015 and 5 DOLLARS.

Each coin is struck from the aforementioned one ounce of .9999 fine silver which is the same pure silver used in the Mint?s world-famous Silver Maple Leaf bullion issues.
